They form the main bond between the bodies of the vertebra?; they are compressible, elastic, and tough. In number they are twenty-three, extending from the axis to the sacrum. They consist of an outer ring and an inner substance, the ring is com- posed of fibro-cartilagenous tissue of concentric layers. The fibers of the layers are not parallel but pass into the layers above and below. The central sub- stance has cartilage cells set in fine connective tissue matrix. The lateral or short vertebral Ligaments connect the adjacent margins of. the bodies of the vertebra? between the anterior and posterior common liga- ments with which they are continuous. In the dorsal region they overlie the stellate ligaments and in the lumbar they radiate towards the transverse pro- cesses. In the cervical region they are less well marked. The Ligamenta subflava conned the lamina between the axis and the sac-.
